Bio[]
Sure Taylor is a detective from Scotland Yard and possibly a TV liaison, often appearing on camera to issue alerts to the public and ask for leads on criminal activity. After February 31, 1973, he appeals to the public of Great Britain to report on the theft of several sheep. One of the thieves made a getaway in a stolen car up a one-way street and tried to swerves between two lorries. He is described as a tall thin Latino. He also suspects the stolen wool have been converted into a series of women's jumpers, and recommends the public check for the Loftish label under the front of the jumper, going so far as to show how to pull the collar out to check for it in a manner that would suggest sexual harassment.
